An experimental study on micro wire-EDM of polycrystalline diamond using a novel pulse generator

This paper presents a new pulse generator for cutting of polycrystalline diamond (PCD) by micro wire electrical discharge machining (micro wire-EDM). The pulse generator using anti-electrolysis circuitry and digital signal processor-based pulse control circuit was developed to suppress damages on the machined surface of PCD while achieving stable machining. A novel pulse control method was proposed to provide high-frequency pulse control signals with a period of off duty cycle for reionization of the dielectric in the spark gap so as to reduce the consecutive occurrence of short circuits. A series of experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of open voltage on machining performance in terms of material removal rate, slit width, thickness of the damaged layer on machined surface, and surface finish. An increase of open voltage increases peak current, thus producing greater discharge energy and, thereby, contributing to improvements in material removal rate, but leading to larger slit width and thickness of the damaged layer and worse surface finish. Experimental results not only demonstrate that the developed pulse generator could achieve satisfactory machining results but also have verified the applicability of this new technique in micro wire-EDM.     

ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE DIAMOND GRINDING OF HIGH SPEED STEEL

A combination of two machining processes (i.e., a hybrid process) has a potential to improve process performance. This paper reports on experimental investigation of the electrical discharge diamond grinding process that combines mechanical grinding with electrical discharge machining. In this process, the workpiece is simultaneously subjected to heating, by electrical sparks bridging the gap between the metallic wheel bonding material and the work, and abrasion by diamond grains. The effect of current, voltage, pulse-on-time and duty factor on the grinding forces and the material removal rate while machining high speed steel workpiece, are investigated. The spark discharges facilitate grinding by thermally softening the work material in the grinding zone, and consequently decreasing the nromal force. It is observed that the material removal rate increases with an increase in current and pulse on-time, while it decreases with an increase in voltage and duty factor. These independent parameters are also found to significantly influence the grinding forces.

Diamond face grinding of WC-Co composite with spark assistance: Experimental study and parameter optimization

Electro-discharge machining (EDM) characteristics of tungsten carbide-cobalt composite are accompanied by a number of problems such as the presence of resolidified layer, large tool wear rate and thermal cracks. Use of combination of conventional grinding and EDM (a new hybrid feature) has potential to overcome these problems. This article presents the face grinding of tungsten carbide-cobalt composite (WC-Co) with electrical spark discharge incorporated within face of wheel and flat surface of cylindrical workpiece. A face grinding setup for electro- discharge diamond grinding (EDDG) process is developed. The effect of input parameters such as wheel speed, current, pulse on-time and duty factor on output parameters such as material removal rate (MRR), wheel wear rate (WWR) and average surface roughness (ASR), are investigated. The present study shows that MRR increases with increase in current and wheel speed while it decreases with increase in pulse on-time for higher pulse on-time (above 100 μs). The most significant factor has been found as wheel speed affecting the robustness of electro- discharge diamond face grinding (EDDFG) process.     

Efficient microspark erosion-assisted machining of a monocrystalline microdiamond stylus using a heat-avoidance path

Monocrystalline diamond possesses covalent bonding making diamond extremely hard and difficult to machine. In this study, a microdiamond stylus typically used in measuring surface roughness is machined to exemplify the proposed ‘microspark erosion-assisted machining with heat-avoidance path’ technique. Based on the high thermal conductivity and weak electrical conductivity of boron-doped monocrystalline diamond, high-frequency pulsed discharge plasma is employed to efficiently perform microspark erosion machining on an extremely hard monocrystalline diamond blank. It was found that the pulse-on time and servo voltage respectively affect erosion plasma length and the erosion gap during diamond machining. Also, the safety distance and safety height of the erosion path dominate heat transfer to filler metal. These factors all affect the firmness of the brazed diamond blank on the substrate. Three mechanisms for removing carbon atoms from the diamond blank surface were observed. They are vaporization, melting, and graphitization of carbon atoms. This graphitized carbon atoms have weak electrical conductivity, which is conducive to inducing the wire-electrode to generate a greater electric field and secondary discharging, facilitating removal of additional carbon atoms. Experimental results indicate that a microdiamond stylus prototype with a tip of 10 μm can be safely formed using a ‘microspark erosion-assisted machining with heat-avoidance path’ technique, creating 93.7% repeatability of the minimum residual stylus diameter. The tangential micro-grinding facilitates the stylus tip to receive grinding from the grinding wheel's maximum tangential speed and create the precision microdiamond stylus with 1 μm in tip-radius. The applied microspark erosion-assisted machining had a diamond material removal rate that was 54% more efficient than conventional grinding of a commercial microdiamond stylus. The formed microdiamond stylus was inspected by Raman spectroscopy and verified by the surface roughness standard gauge to be up to industry standards.

S-03 is a novel special stainless steel, which is widely used in precision aerospace parts and electrical discharge machining technology has the merit of high-accuracy machining. This paper aims to combine gray relational analysis and orthogonal experimental to optimize electrical discharge high-accuracy machining parameters. The four process parameters of gap voltage, peak discharge current, pulse width, and pulse interval are required to optimize in the fewest experiment times. The material removal rate and surface roughness are the objective parameters. The experiment were carried out based on Taguchi L9 orthogonal array, then we carried out the gray relational analysis to optimize the multi-objective machining parameter, finally, we verified the results through a confirmation experiment. The sequence of machining parameters from primary to secondary are as follows: discharge current 7A, pulse interval 100 μs, pulse width 50 μs, and gap voltage 70 V. Using the above machining parameters, we can obtain good surface roughness Ra1.7 μm, and material removal rate 13.3 mm³/min. The machined work piece almost has no surface modification layer. The results show that combining orthogonal experiment and gray relational analysis can further optimize machining parameters, the material removal rate increased by 23.8 %, and the surface roughness almost has no change.

ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MILLING AND MECHANICAL GRINDING COMPOUND MACHINING OF SILICON CARBIDE CERAMIC

Silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics have been widely used in modern industry. However, the manufacture of SiC ceramics is not an efficient process. This paper proposes a new technology of machining SiC ceramics with electrical discharge milling and mechanical grinding compound method. The compound process employs the pulse generator used in electrical discharge machining, and uses a water-based emulsion as the machining fluid. It is able to effectively machine a large surface area on SiC ceramics with a good surface quality. In this paper, the effects of pulse duration, pulse interval, peak voltage, peak current and feed rate of the workpiece on the process performance parameters, such as material removal rate, relative electrode wear ratio and surface roughness, have been investigated. A L₂₅ orthogonal array based on Taguchi method is adopted, and the experimental data are statistically evaluated by analysis of variance and stepwise regression. The significant machining parameters, the optimal combination levels of machining parameters, and the mathematical models associated with the process performance are obtained. In addition, the workpiece surface microstructure is examined with a scanning electron microscope and an energy dispersive spectrometer.     

Application of non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm for multi-objective optimization of electrical discharge diamond face grinding process

Hybrid machining processes (HMPs), having potential for machining of difficult to machine materials but the complexity and high manufacturing cost, always need to optimize the process parameters. Our objective was to optimize the process parameters of electrical discharge diamond face grinding (EDDFG), considering the simultaneous effect of wheel speed, pulse current, pulse on-time and duty factor on material removal rate (MRR) and average surface roughness (Ra). The experiments were performed on a high speed steel (HSS) workpiece at a self developed face grinding setup on an EDM machine. All the experimental results were used to develop the mathematical model using response surface methodology (RSM). The developed model was used to generate the initial population for a genetic algorithm (GA) during optimization, non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) was used to optimize the process parameters of EDDFG process. Finally, optimal solutions obtained from pareto front are presented and compared with experimental data.
